Screenwriting Initiatives

'Mumbai Mantra - CineRise: 100 Storytellers a Year' was launched in 2014 to nurture 100 Indian storytellers from across the globe. With veteran Indian screenwriter AnjumRajabali as its convenor, the programme culminates in an event where 12 to 15 selected screenwriters pitch their screenplays to studio heads, independent producers and directors, film festival programmers and curators.

Growth Story

Since its inception in 2008, Mumbai Mantra has been committed to providing a platform for independent voices in Indian cinema with an aim to championing an emerging generation of exciting filmmakers. The first step was a multifaceted 3-year collaboration with the Sundance Institute founded by Robert Redford. This included the Mumbai Mantra Sundance Institute Screenwriters Lab in India and the Sundance Institute | Mahindra Global Filmmaking Awards held at the Sundance Film Festival. 16 filmmakers have been awarded and 25 screenwriters mentored during the last three Screenwriting Labs. The company is actively evaluating opportunities in content and infrastructure in the domestic as well as international media and entertainment space.
